    different ways to set gpu


    I have a gpu that wont run as my default display due to it being incompatible, but it runs my minecraft java edition on it. its a nvidia Geforce GT 540m, but my minecraft win 10 wont run on my nvidia gpu. is there a way to set the gpu through cmd or PowerShell or something? nvidia control panel and windows display settings both don't work for me.

    Is there a way to force a program to use a secondary GPU?

    I have 2 GPU's (Nvidia GTX 970 and 1080) and I want to force a program to use the 1080 for certain programs/games. Going to Settings>System>Display>Graphics Settings should give me the option to switch GPU's. Unfortunately it does not list both of my GPU's
    nor does it allow me to change to another one, only the default GPU is chosen (the 970). This is a desktop computer and I have tried the Nvidia control panel and UEFI settings without much luck. If I tried selecting a program to run on my 1080 (through the
    Nvidia control panel), it would still run it on the 970. I have tried switching the GPU's around with not much luck there either. If I can suggest to Microsoft the option in the Graphics Settings to list both GPU's for selection, that would be great. Otherwise
    I don't know what to do. Does anyone have any suggestions? Thank you for your time.

    Setting Programs to different GPU.

    Hello,

    I currently have a two different GPUs on my desktop. One of them is Nvidia GTX960, other one is AMD Radeon HD6950. I cannot set any program to use one or other; there is only one option to use. Only if I set my primary display to which screen is connected
    to that GPU. I want to set programs differently. Like, Program A-B-C to HD6950, Program D-E-F to GTX 960 but `Graphics Settings` options does not work for what I want. Is there any different solution that I can try?

    That's what the auto setting will do since you're over the 1333 mark it jumps to the next step which isn't listed or officially supported I assume by that ram.

    At this point though I would suggest dropping the multi one step or .5 so that we can get something stable and possibly take the heat issue out of the picture for now.
